| To mark World AIDS Day, Saddelback Pastor Rick Warren is hosting a Civil Forum on Global Health at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. Warren will present President Bush with the first �?A target=_top href="http://blog.christianitytoday.com/ctliveblog/archives/2008/11/warren_to_award_1.html">International Medal of PEACE�?from the Global PEACE Coalition in recognition of his unprecedented contribution to the fight against HIV/AIDS and other diseases. The “International Medal of PEACE�?is given for outstanding contribution toward alleviating the five global giants recognized by the Coalition, including pandemic diseases, extreme poverty, illiteracy, self-centered leadership and spiritual emptiness. The Bush administration reports that its AIDS initiative helped treat two million people this year living with HIV/AIDS.
So a pastor from a conservative church decides that Bush gets an International Medal of Peace??? WTF??? Yeah, that darn Nobel society doesn't have it goin' on anymore, so let's take it upon ourselves to begin the revisionist history BEFORE IT'S EVEN HISTORY. |

Instead of elevating Bush as an "in your face," to his multitude of critics, this organization must live with the inexcusable cheapening of its first ever international award, probably permanently staining it as a meaningless platitude from a good old boy club to one of their own. |

Are you familiar with Rick Warren? This guy is Evangelical Extraordinaire. He applied a business model to "sharing the good news" and his church exploded. Of course, theologians have toasted him for the model...(many have...some go back to "if you're for me how can you be against me")...but it's really an interesting (if disturbing) approach to Christianity. Buy the formula and all is well... Doesn't surprise me in the least that they've honored Bush. |

OK, I have to post this here. Xer needs some laughter as the best medicine. You know, knowing how the Bush administration cooks its own stories with exaggeration, I think maybe a few of these were stretched. First, Pastor Warren is an old junk dealer. Second Bush didn't exactly receive a peace medal. He received a piece of metal. When his aids picked it up, a fight ensured, not between the HIV and the AID, but between the GOP and the IMP. See? BS.

I don't admit knowledge of anyone named Rick Warren, or George Bush. Would you? |
